After successful completion of the course, students are able to read, understand and sketch architectural and urban issues. They have an extended repertoire of freehand depiction to grasp and analyse complex architectural and urban spatial contexts and to abstract them adequately in terms of representation. They know the laws of perspective representation and apply them consistently. They are able to develop font/image designs in order to conceive and compose posters in a graphically effective way. You have a repertoire of visual communication tools relevant for further study.

Freehand representation by drawing and/or painting. The project work at the beginning of the semester pays special attention to design-related, imaginative sketching of space and different aspects of representational means (grafic desing basics).  In the drawing exercises  on the spot (taking place once a week subsequent to the project work), specific aspects of the problems of presentation of architecture and its surroundings are worked out self-actingly  and theoretically by means of different motives in urban space. By the series of lectures accompanying the weekly drawing exercises, alongside practical contents, theoretical and scientific relations relevant to the topics as well as exemplary art-specific relations and correlations are established. Lectures of artists offer a first possibility to become familiar with the manifold languages and forms of contemporary art.

Methodical course elements (parallel to each other or based on each other):

Lecture: Here you will be introduced to the basics, techniques and insights into artistic practice and you will gain important basic knowledge for independent work during the practice units. Student works from previous years will give you orientation.
The weekly lecture units are closely coordinated with the practice sessions and form an integral part of the course.
Drawing in practice groups: Here you practice the contents presented in the lecture with intensive personal supervision.
Consolidation exercises: According to the information provided, you will be able to independently implement and upload the content on a weekly basis.
Online tutorial: As an aid to self-study, the basics of perspective presentation are explained in detail online and presented step by step in a comprehensible manner
Sketch book: This helps you to acquire and deepen your sketching-routines.

Mandatory lecture: continuous participation in the lecture and courses is a precondition for a positive examination. The final grade comprises the evaluation of the project work, the drawing work after the motif, independently performed home-exercises and sketch book.

A positive grade for the ZVS course is only possible if all the individual grades are positive. A positive for the drawing tutorial requires regular attendance for the full duration of the tutorials. The whole semester (all parts) must be repeated if the drawing tutorial grade is negative. Failed project work can only be retaken with permission of the lecturer up until the beginning of the next academic year (1st October). After this date, all positive drawing tutorial grades are forfeit and the semester has to be repeated in its entirety.

"Arbeitshandbuch ZVS" is sold at the Institute, Karlsplatz 13, Stg.10, 4.St.,
